From the Middle East to Russia to our own southern border, Obama’s bills are coming due.

Often,
crazy things seem normal for a time because logical catastrophes do not
immediately follow.A deeply suspicious Richard Nixon systematically and
without pushback for years undermined and politicized almost every
institution of the federal government, from the CIA and the FBI to the
IRS and the attorney general’s office. Nixon seemed to get away with it —
until his second term. Once the public woke up, however, the eventual
accounting proved devastating: resignation of a sitting president,
prison sentences for his top aides, collapse of the Republican party,
government stasis, a ruined economy, the destruction of the Vietnam
peace accords that had led to a viable South Vietnam, the end of Henry
Kissinger’s diplomatic breakthroughs, and a generation of abject
cynicism about government. Did Nixon ever grasp that such destruction
was the natural wage of his own paranoia?

In the
post-Watergate climate of reform, for nearly three years a naïve Jimmy
Carter gave utopian speeches about how American forbearance would end
the Cold War and create a new world order based on human rights — until
America’s abdication started to erode the preexisting global order.
Scary things followed, such as the fall of the shah of Iran, the rise of
Iranian theocracy, the taking of American hostages in Tehran,
revolutions and insurrection throughout Central America, the Soviet
invasion of Afghanistan, radical Islamists taking over Mecca, more gas
lines, continued stagflation, and China invading Vietnam. Did the
puritanical Carter ever understand what might be the consequences of his
own self-righteousness in an imperfect world?

Barack Obama
likewise has done some crazy things that seemed for years to have no
ramifications. Unfortunately, typical of the ways of Nemesis (a bitter
goddess who waits until the opportune moment to demand payment for past
hubris), suddenly the bills for Obama’s six years of folly are coming
due for the American people.

When a president occasionally fails
to tell the truth, you get a scandal like the monitoring of the
Associated Press reporters. When a president serially fails to tell the
truth, you get that plus the scandals involving the IRS, the NSA, the
VA, Benghazi, and too many others to mention.

The same is true
abroad. The American public hardly noticed when Obama recklessly
withdrew every peacekeeper from Iraq. Did he not boast of “ending the
Iraq War”? It did not mind when the U.S. posted dates for withdrawal
from Afghanistan. Trashing all the Bush–Cheney anti-terrorism protocols,
from Guantanamo to renditions, did not make much sense, when such
policies had worked and, in fact, were of use to Obama himself. But
again, most Americans took no note. Apparently the terrorists did,
however, and they regrouped even as the president declared them “on the
run.”

Lecturing Israel while praising Islamist Turkey was
likewise ignored. America snoozed as its president insidiously redefined
its role in the Middle East as secondary to the supposed pivot to Asia.
Each new correction in and of itself was comparatively minor; but in
aggregate they began to unravel the U.S.-inspired postwar global order.

At
first, who cared whether Iran serially violated every Obama deadline on
halting nuclear enrichment? Did we worry that Libya, where Obama was
proud of having led from behind, was descending into Somalia? Few
Americans were all that bothered over Obama’s empty order to Syrian
president Bashar Assad to step down, or over Obama’s later vacuous
red-line threats that bombs would follow any use by Assad of chemical
weapons.

Few noted that Obama lied to the nation that a video had
caused the deaths of four Americans in Benghazi, that Obama had known
who the real terrorist perpetrators were but had ordered no immediate
action to kill or capture them, and that Americans had been engaged in
mysterious and still unexplained covert activities in Benghazi. After
all that, we still shrugged when the president traded five top terrorist
leaders for an alleged American deserter.

Trashing George W.
Bush’s policy toward Vladimir Putin while promising a new reset approach
(illustrated with a plastic red button) to an aggressive dictator
raised few eyebrows at the time. Nor did many Americans worry that our
Pacific allies were upset over Chinese and North Korean aggression that
seemed to ignore traditional U.S. deterrence.

We were told that
only Obama-haters at home had catalogued the president’s apologies
abroad, his weird multicultural bowing to authoritarians, his
ahistorical speeches about mythical Islamic achievements, his surreal
euphemisms for radical Islam, terrorism, and jihadism, his shrill
insistence about civilian trials for terrorists and closing Guantanamo,
or the radical cutbacks at the Pentagon, coupled with the vast increase
in entitlement spending.

But after six years of all that,
our allies have got the message that they are on their own, our enemies
that there are few consequences to aggression, and neutrals that joining
with America does not mean ending up on the winning side. The result is that the Middle East we have known since the end of World War II has now vanished

Supposedly
crackpot fantasies about a worldwide “caliphate” are becoming reified.
What were once dismissed as conspiracy theories about an “Iranian arc” —
from a nuclear Tehran through Syria to Hezbollah in Lebanon to the
borders of Israel to the Shiite minorities in the Gulf kingdoms — do not
seem so crazy.

The idea of visiting the Egyptian pyramids or
hoping to reengage with a reforming Libya is absurd. The best of the
Middle East — Israel, Jordan, Kurdistan — no longer count on us. The
worst — ISIS, Iran, Syria — count on us to remain irrelevant or worse.
Old allies in the Gulf would probably trust Israel or Russia more than
the Obama administration. In the next two years, if Obama continues on
his present course, we are going to see things that we could not have
imagined six years ago in the Middle East, as it reverts to premodern
Islamic tribalism.

The same trajectory has been followed on the
home front. Americans at first were amused that the great conciliator —
and greatest political recipient on record of Wall Street cash — went
after the rich with an array of hokey epithets and slurs (fat cats,
corporate-jet owners, Vegas junketeers, limb-lopping and tonsil-pulling
doctors, business owners who should not profit, or should know when they
have made enough money, or should admit they didn’t build their own
businesses). Few connected the dots when the polarizing attorney general
— the John Mitchell of our time — referred to African-Americans as “my
people” and all the rest of the nation as “cowards.” Did we worry that
the craziest things seem to come out of the president’s own mouth — the
Trayvon-like son he never had, the stereotyping police, the absence of a
“smidgen” of corruption in the Lois Lerner IRS scandal, or the mean
Republicans who “messed” with him?

The president before the 2012
elections lamented to Latino groups that he did not have dictatorial
powers to grant amnesty but urged them in the meantime to “punish our
enemies” — a sort of follow-up to his 2008 “typical white person”
incitement. Who was bothered that with “a pen and a phone” Obama for the
first time in American history emasculated the U.S. Border Patrol, as
part of a larger agenda of picking and choosing which federal laws the
executive branch would enforce?

Those choices seemed to be
predicated on two extralegal criteria: Did a law contribute to Obama’s
concept of social justice, and did it further the progressive political
cause? If the answer was no to either, the statute was largely
unenforced. No president since World War II has done more to harm
the U.S. Constitution — by ordering the executive branch not to enforce
particular laws, by creating by fiat laws never enacted by Congress, by
monitoring the communications of journalists and average Americans, by
making appointments contrary to law — to the apparent yawns of the
people.Too few also seemed to care that almost
everything the president had promised about Obamacare — keep your health
plan, retain your doctor, save money on your premiums, sign up easily
online, while we were lowering the annual deficit and reducing medical
expenditures — was an abject lie. In such a climate, Obama felt no need
to issue accurate data about how many Americans had lost their health
plans, how many had simply transferred to Obamacare from Medicaid, how
many had actually paid their premiums, or how many were still uninsured.
The media ignored the serial $1 trillion deficits, the chronic high
unemployment and low growth, the nonexistence of the long-promised
“summer of recovery,” and the nonappearance of “millions of shovel-ready
and green jobs.” The fact that electrical-power rates, gasoline prices,
and food costs have soared under Obama as wages have stagnated has
never really been noticed. Nor have the record numbers of Americans on
food stamps and disability insurance.

Meanwhile, as Obama has
refused to enforce immigration law, the result is chaos. Tens of
thousands of children are flooding across our border illegally, on the
scent of Obama’s executive-order amnesties. Advocates of open borders,
such as progressive grandees Mark Zuckerberg and Nancy Pelosi, assume
that these impoverished Third World children will not enroll in the
private academies attended by their children or grandchildren, or need
housing in one of their vacation estates, or crowd their specialists’
waiting rooms. They do not worry about the effects of illegal
immigration on the wages of low-income Americans. Dealing first-hand
with the ramifications of open borders is for unenlightened, illiberal
little people.

Obama’s economic legacy is rarely appreciated. He
has institutionalized the idea that unemployment between 6 and 7 percent
is normal, that annual deficits over $500 billion reflect frugality,
that soaring power, food, and fuel costs are not proof of inflation,
that zero interest rates are the reward for thrift, that higher taxes
are always a beginning, never an end, and that there is no contradiction
when elite progressives — the Obamas, the Clintons, the Warrens — trash the 1-percenters, while doing everything in their power to live just like them.We are the roost and, to paraphrase the president’s former spiritual adviser, Obama’s chickens are now coming home to us.

Are you aware that in 2013, Middle class taxes go up-significantly?

In January of next year, the federal income tax rate for middle-class taxpayers is scheduled to rise from 25 percent to 28 percent, and the payroll tax is scheduled to rise from 13.3 percent to 15.3 percent… This drives the marginal tax rate based on the aforementioned three taxes to 48.12 percent. Add in state and local property, corporate, excise, and other state and local taxes, and the percentage of each additional dollar that is taxed hovers around 50 percent… When half of each additional dollar earned is taxed away, taxpayers experience a disincentive to start businesses or expand existing ones. This leads to fewer jobs being created.

10 Unknown West Bank Facts

Liberals Redefine "Extremism" and the "Political Center"

On March 31, 1977, the Dutch newspaper Trouw published an interview

with PLO executive committee member Zahir Muhsein. Here's what he said:

"The Palestinian people does not exist.The creation of a Palestinian state is only a means for continuing our struggle against the state of Israel for our Arab unity. In reality today there is no difference between Jordanians, Palestinians, Syrians and Lebanese. Only for political and tactical reasons do we speak today about the existence of a Palestinian people, since Arab national interests demand that we posit the existence of a distinct "Palestinian people" to oppose Zionism.

For tactical reasons, Jordan, which is a sovereign state with defined borders, cannot raise claims to Haifa and Jaffa, while as a Palestinian, I can undoubtedly demand Haifa, Jaffa, Beer-Sheva and Jerusalem. However, the moment we reclaim our right to all of Palestine, we will not wait even a minute to unite Palestine and Jordan."

The Arab Apartheid

Ben-Dror YeminiIn 1948, the Arab countries refused to accept the UN partition proposal and they launched a war of annihilation against the State of Israel which had barely been established. All precedents in this matter showed that the party that starts the war - and with a declaration of annihilation, yet - pays a price for it. Between 550,000 and 710,000 Arabs fled because of the war and a larger number of 850,000 Jews were expelled or fled from Arab countries (the "Jewish nakba").Population exchanges and expulsions were the norm at that time, occurring in dozens of other conflict points and affecting about 52 million people. In all the population exchange precedents that occurred during or at the end of an armed conflict, there was no return of refugees to the previous region, which had turned into a new national state. Only the Arab states acted completely differently from the rest of the world. Instead of assimilating the refugees, they crushed them despite the fact that they were their coreligionists and members of the Arab nation - instituting a regime of apartheid. So the "nakba" was not caused by the actual dispossession, which had also been experienced by tens of millions of others. The "nakba" is the story of the apartheid, oppression, abuse and denial of rights suffered by the Arab refugees at the hands of the Arab countries. (Maariv)

They then do their utmost to exploit what they view as one of their enemy's main weaknesses. Their very modus operandi is built on the correct assumption that Western armies will normally abide by the rules, while these insurgents employ a deliberate policy of operating consistently outside international law.

Lost Historical Moments

WHAT Golda Meir actually said...

"When was there an independent Palestinian people with a Palestinian state? It was either southern Syria before the First World War, and then it was a Palestine including Jordan. It was not as though there was a Palestinian people in Palestine considering itself as a Palestinian people and we came and threw them out and took their country away from them. They did not exist." Golda Meir June 15, 1969: Interview in the UK Sunday Times

What Rabin’s last Knesset speech really said:repudiation of a Palestinian state

Rabin ruled out a fully sovereign Palestinian state :

“We view the permanent solution in the framework of State of Israel which will include most of the area of the Land of Israel as it was under the rule of the British Mandate, and alongside it a Palestinian entity which will be a home to most of the Palestinian residents living in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. We would like this to be an entity which is less than a state, and which will independently run the lives of the Palestinians under its authority.”

Rabin ruled out a total withdrawal from Judea and Samaria and thus a return to the pre-June 1967 borders :

“The borders of the State of Israel, during the permanent solution, will be beyond the lines which existed before the Six Day War. We will not return to the 4 June 1967 lines.”

Rabin ruled out withdrawing form the Jordan Valley:

“The security border of the State of Israel will be located in the Jordan Valley, in the broadest meaning of that term.”

Rabin ruled out uprooting settlement blocs, like the Gush Katif bloc in Gaza (which was subsequently uprooted by former Prime Minister Ariel Sharon):

“The establishment of blocs of settlements in Judea and Samaria, like the one in Gush Katif.

AND

Rabin ruled out removing any settlement before coming to a full peace agreement with the Palestinians:

“I want to remind you: we committed ourselves, that is, we came to an agreement, and committed ourselves before the Knesset, not to uproot a single settlement in the framework of the interim agreement, and not to hinder building for natural growth.”

Rabin insisted on Israel retaining full security control of the borders with Egypt and Jordan, contrary to Israel’s relinquishment of the Philadelphia Corridor on the border with Egypt:

“The responsibility for external security along the borders with Egypt and Jordan, as well as control over the airspace above all of the territories and Gaza Strip maritime zone, remains in our hands.”

Correcting Oslo Myths-Part 2

3) Kuttab laments that the post-1993 Oslo process resulted in a Palestinian Authority "whose ministers and legislators are not guaranteed passage between Gaza and the West Bank ...."

Before free passage or other perquisites, PA leaders were obligated, among other things, to eliminate the terrorist infrastructure in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, end anti-Israeli, antisemitic incitement in schools, mosques, and communications media, and resolve all outstanding issues through peaceful negotiations. They met none of these commitments, sometimes bolstering terrorism and greatly increasing incitement.

4) Kuttab complains that under Oslo the PA got "lightly armed police ---- but no real sovereignty over the land or contiguity between our communities in Gaza and the West Bank."

Oslo agreements repeatedly were revised, regardless of Palestinian non-compliance, until the authorized number of police grew from 8,000 to 40,000. Though they were to be the only armed forces in the territories, Israeli estimates early in the second intifada put the number of gunmen - police, "security services," terrorists, and armed gangs - at 85,000. Their armament reportedly included not only heavy machine guns and rocket-propelled grenades, but also anti-tank and anti-aircraft missiles.

Sovereignty was to be negotiated in the envisioned 1998 "final status" talks - after a five-year period of confidence-building. Palestinian leadership chronically undermined the process. Palestinian terrorism made the 1993 - 1998 Oslo period more deadly for Israelis than the 15 years preceding it.

The United States doesn't have contiguity between the lower 48 states and Alaska and Hawaii; territorial contiguity between the West Bank and Gaza Strip - that is, through the 20 miles of Israeli territory between them - was never promised and would destroy Israeli contiguity.

5) "Palestinians have been made to endure hundreds of checkpoints in the West Bank, an eight-foot wall deep in our territories, and tight Israeli control over borders."

The security barrier is not "deep in Palestinian territories," but rather encompasses less than 8 percent of Judea and Samaria, and is mostly a fence, rarely a wall; the land in question is not "our [Palestinian] territories" but disputed territory to which, according to the authors of U.N. Security Council Resolution 242, Jews as well as Arabs have claims; and there are no international borders, only the 1949 armistice lines with Jordan. Under 242, borders remain to be negotiated. As for checkpoints - like the security barrier and "tight Israeli control" - Palestinian Arabs precipitated these measures themselves. No terrorism and there would be no fence or tight Israeli control and few checkpoints - like before the first intifada.

Correcting Some Oslo Myths

1) In Oslo "Israeli, Palestinian and other world leaders promised that ... Palestinian sovereignty would be solidified."

No, they didn't. The 1993 Declaration of Principles and subsequent Oslo agreements outlined a process by which final status negotiations about the West Bank and Gaza Strip would be reached. The process required an end to anti-Israel terrorism and incitement and a commitment to peaceful negotiations. The PA, Fatah, Hamas, Islamic Jihad, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, and other terrorist groups, sabotaged the process from the start.

2) "The reality is that, in defiance of U.N. Security Council Resolution 242, which states that it is inadmissible to occupy land by force, Palestinian territories are still under foreign military occupation."Wrong again. Resolution 242 (1967) does note "the inadmissibility of the acquisition of territory by war." It also affirms the right of every state in the area "to live in peace with secure and recognized boundaries free from threats or acts of force." There were no "Palestinian territories." Jordan occupied the West Bank, Egypt controlled Gaza. Israel did not have "secure and recognized boundaries," so retention of some of those territories was possible under 242. Israel is not a "foreign" military occupier in the West Bank but, pending final negotiations, the lawful military administrator as a result of a successful war of self-defense.
